"No, that's not it."
"That Mr. Dan Heng is your companion, right? He looks like he's in bad shape. You'd better come over here."
"Huh?" Yan Huan stared, baffled.
Some time earlier.

"Sampo? What are you doing here?"
Dan Heng folded his arms and studied the blue-haired man before him.

Hearing that, Dan Heng almost believed
